Actually the closest I seen to that term in print was in the June 2011 NRA American Hunter mag and they are writing about rifle shooting at running game as "swing through".

So if you see a bunny or squirrel stationary, you just swing the gun up and fire?

Is that 100% hit rate? My method is but we are now far from the topic of #1 buck for HD... Someone care to start a thread here or in hunting regarding the art of the mount and fire techniques?

As I said, I am frugal... I do not wing shoot game birds as the cost per pound/meal is too high with practice and hunt ammo costs.
